[VIDEO] The Massive Importance of Net Neutrality

The massive importance of net neutrality that everyone needs to know.

Technology is unstoppable, and its innovation continues to grow. We incorporate the breakthrough into our daily lives not knowing that we are victimizing ourselves. This is when net neutrality comes in to preserve our rights to privacy and reclaim our freedom.

Last year, Edward Snowden posted a tweet unveiling the truth about Smart TVs and certain software installed on computers, laptops, and even devices. These are used to spy on everything that you and record everything that you have said. He found out about this ingenious leak about four years ago. After two years, Samsung informally cautioned the public to become wary of their Smart TV with built-in software that recognizes voice which could record living room conversation.

Privacy does not only apply to TVs, laptops, or mobile phones. People are being watched while watching television in the comfort of their home while stealing their rights to privacy. What more if they are using the internet for communication?

Net neutrality has been an issue for many years now. The government, state officials, and telecom companies including the people all over the world are entwined in the mess that the FCC created when it decided to repeal net neutrality.

Net neutrality matters because it is the internet’s guiding principle that preserves our right to communicate freely online. It also empowers and protects free speech. Consumers will be safeguarded from ISPs from blocking, throttling, and discriminating contents, apps, and other websites that they want to access.
